Kansas Income Tax Overview
Kansas levies its own income tax on top of the federal tax everyone pays, and it is structured as a two-bracket progressive system. Income is taxed at 5.2% up to a threshold and at 5.58% above it, with the top rate kicking in on taxable income over $23,000 for single filers and $46,000 for married couples filing jointly. The state sets its own standard deduction, $3,605 for single filers, separate from the federal figure, and adds a personal exemption per person, so Kansas taxable income is not the same number as your federal taxable income.
Anyone who earns income while living in Kansas, or earns Kansas-source income as a nonresident, generally files a return with the Kansas Department of Revenue. The state tax stacks on top of federal tax rather than replacing any of it: you compute federal liability with the IRS and a separate Kansas liability with the state. Retirees get real relief: since the 2024 tax reform, Social Security benefits are fully exempt from Kansas tax at any income. Wages, business income, and most investment income remain fully subject to the two-bracket schedule.
